Triggers of Anaphylaxis in Mastocytosis Patients: Evidence of the Current Drug-Avoidance Recommendation
Opinion statementMastocytosis is associated with a high risk of anaphylaxis, in part due to drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHR). Drugs associated with mast cell activation include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), drugs used in the perioperative setting, including general anesthetics, neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) and opiates/opioids, radiocontrast media (RCM), vaccines, and antibiotics such as quinolones and vancomycin. To protect patients against DHR and anaphylaxis, general avoidance of potential drug triggers is common practice, which often deprives patients of important drugs at times of need an...

Advances for pediatricians in 2022: allergy, anesthesiology, cardiology, dermatology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, genetics, global health, infectious diseases, metabolism, neonatology, neurology, oncology, pulmonology
AbstractThe last year saw intensive efforts to advance knowledge in pediatric medicine. This review highlights important publications that have been issued in the Italian Journal of Pediatrics in 2022. We have chosen papers in the fields of allergy, anesthesiology, cardiology, dermatology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, genetics, global health, infectious diseases, metabolism, neonatology, neurology, oncology, pulmonology. Novel valuable developments in epidemiology, pathophysiology, prevention, diagnosis and treatment that can rapidly change the approach to diseases in childhood have been included and discussed.

Evaluation of pain-alleviating strategies during allergy shots (subcutaneous immunotherapy): a randomized controlled pilot study
Conclusions. There were no significant differences found between each of the distraction devices and between the control group. Type II error/false negative finding cannot be ruled out because of a small sample. Therefore, we cannot conclude that no true difference exists between each distraction device and the control group simply because of occurrence of a non-significant P-value in our study.PMID:37671862 | DOI:10.23822/EurAnnACI.1764-1489.312

Joint and Soft Tissue Injections
Am Fam Physician. 2023 Aug;108(2):151-158.ABSTRACTJoint and soft tissue injections can be divided into two primary categories: diagnostic and therapeutic. Diagnostic injections facilitate a diagnosis by using a local anesthetic to identify the site of pain or through fluid aspiration for analysis. Therapeutic injections are categorized by the type of injectate and include corticosteroids, hyaluronic acid, dextrose prolotherapy, and platelet-rich plasma. Diagnostic and therapeutic injections are most accurate under direct visualization. Corticosteroid injections help treat adhesive capsulitis and tenosynovitis but are not r...
